Samsung foundry market falls in 2022, TSMC enjoys jump!
Samsung registered a 15.5 percent share in the global foundry market in Q3 2022. In the same duration, the share of Taiwan’s TSMC reached 56.1% in the global market, up from 52.1% in the fourth quarter of last year.
TrendForce reported that gap between Samsung and TSMC widened in 2022 in the global foundry market share. Samsung’s market share rose to 18.3% in 4Q21, then declined to 16.3%, 16.5% and 15.5% in 1Q22, 2Q22, and 3Q22, respectively.

It’s worth mentioning that the fallen foundry share didn’t radically affect revenue and sales as the report suggests. Samsung’s sales came in at $5.584 billion, which is just 0.1% less than the previous quarter.

On the flip side, the Taiwanese chipset maker’s sales claimed 11.1% from $18.145 billion in the second quarter to $20.163 billion in the third quarter. Here’s what TrendForce said on market analysis.
“Most of the foundry companies were affected by a decrease in customer orders, but TSMC enjoyed a big increase in order inflow due to strong demand for new iPhones.”
Samsung’s expansion of advanced processes helped it narrow the gap with TSMC to 33.8% points in the fourth quarter of last year, however, it widened to 40.6% points in the third quarter of 2022.
TSMC is going to establish a new production plant in Arizona, United States, and recently announced it would ramp up its investment in the country from $12 billion to $40 billion.

Korea’s Samsung Display and LG Display prep to initiate Apple iPhone 16 Pro display production in the first half. The report states that Apple has reduced the bottom bezel of the display for the upcoming Pro models, which would include the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max.
According to TheElec, Samsung Display will commence Apple iPhone 16 display production in the first half itself. While the timeline isn’t clear, it’s expected that LG Display is also striving to begin the mass production of panels for the iPhone 16 Pro lineup.
Samsung reportedly established an organization earlier this month to strengthen its Apple business. It is reported that the Border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology is applied to make the bottom bezel thinner on the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models.
Samsung Display will likely produce OLED panels for all four models, including two Pro models and the other regular and Plus models. Meanwhile, LG Display plans to produce only two models, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max, which require a thin bottom bezel.

Samsung just trolled Apple over reports of faulty iPhone alarms. The company’s UK account posted the mockery Reels on Instagram, trolling Apple following reports from some iPhone users regarding the alarms problem.
It isn’t the first time Samsung is making fun of its biggest rival. The Korean tech giant doesn’t have sweet relationships with Apple’s iPhone business, as it’s the biggest rival internationally apart from the US leadership.
“Rest assured our alarms GO OFF,” the company writes (via TechRadar) in its latest meme-based Instagram post, adding in the caption: “Samsung users woke up on time today.”
Samsung has a long history of mocking Apple, which is refreshed with the latest incident. While the Instagram post doesn’t clearly mention Apple or iPhone anywhere, the subject of the meme-based post is a no-brainer.
iPhone Alarms Bug
Due to iOS setting issue, iPhone alarms are not working properly, some Apple users report. The iPhone maker acknowledged the issue saying “an issue causing some iPhone alarms to not play as expected.” The best part is the company is preparing a fix, which should be rolled out soon.
